I, too, found it fascinating to see what she had to endure and how much she believed she had to hide from the public. “Against Wind and Tide” shows a side of AML that is both consistent with and very different from that which you see in her earlier books.

As a longtime fan of Gift From the Sea, I found it fascinating to read about it from her private perspective as the author (especially the part where she talks about having outgrown it). It’s sobering to realize that an educated, affluent and gifted woman such as AML lived a life that was subjected, in so many ways, to the often unreasonable demands of her husband.

I am blind without a pencil.” No. 2: “I am convinced that you must write as if no one were ever going to see it. Write it all, as personally and specifically as you can, as deeply and honestly as you can. … In fact, I think it is the only true way to reach the universal, through the knot-hole of the personal. So do, do go ahead and write it as it boils up: the hot lava from the unconscious. Don’t stop to observe, criticize, or be ‘ironic.’ Just write it, like a letter, without rereading. Later, one can decide what to do.” […]

Losing one’s innocence that Charles was pretty much like Jimmy in and out of that movie has been tough for many of us–and for Anne as well.

Tue, 04 Sep 2012 01:13:37 +0000http://oneminutebookreviews.wordpress.com/?p=23958#comment-8739Thanks, Thomas. I do a “Best Line” and “Worst Line” at the end of every review (or a “Best/Worst Picture” if I’ve reviewed an illustrated children’s book).
